They explain how Musk leveraged his Silicon Valley clout to take over, and tank, everyone’s favorite hellsite and we’re left wondering: is Elon Musk the ultimate Scamfluencer?

I quit Twitter even b4 Elon took over because it was so toxic. I can't imagine what it's like to be on it now. After I left, my mental health improved tremendously.
